System files on my S20/128 GB take 19.75 GB
How many GB take the system files on S21? For 128 GB or 256 GB options...thanks.
(Go to My Files app, then 3dots on top right corner, then Analyse storage, then look at System)

Alex, 26 Feb 2021Stop this BS about better cameras, Nixon. Even on paper the... moreFront cameras are improved from last year. And as for the rear cameras, video and software for them are improved. Do your homework
Oh, also, another thing I forgot... This has 8GB of ram as standard base model, where the S20 has 6.
BTW. Tell me please one phone that improve in everything one year after another... Dont lose your time, they dont exist.
Also If you cannot see the many improvements it still has, you are blind, as simple as that

But with the pandemic, no need to show something new because people are not in the urge to buy new phones. That is why they just recycled last year S20 and even downgraded it to sell it cheaper. Next year you will see a much better phone S22. So S21 is just a place holder nobody in his right mind would buy...

And the new chips are far better than... the last year disaster? Or better in overheating?
There is nothing premium left in this phone, other than the CPU and the price.

Did you know the internal memory is next generation and much faster so makes everything run smoother? Did you know the fingerprint reader is larger and better? Did you know the new chips are far better and more efficient therefore battery is better? Did you know cameras have improved? Did you know the display is actually better and more durable, despite not having 2k?
Those are details that may not be visible in the spec sheet, but they do exist. So people, dont be stupid and dont judge phones only by looking at the specs.

Anonymous, 24 Feb 2021No it isn’t. Glass will resist scratches and cracks that pl... moreI am going by the reviews I've watched or read in the last couple of months comparing glass backs to plastic backs. They all said that the plastic backs were more durable than the glass backs.
And for me, I have always used a case on my cell phones. So the back doesn't really matter much to me. Except that a plastic back would make the phone slightly lighter than a glass one. Which would be another plus. And I would not need to worry about the plastic back breaking like a glass one would. If I ever dropped it for some reason. But also going by my past history, that is an extremely rare event for me. But I still want protection, just in case.

And a glass back panel is not expensive at all.
They’ve saved, what, £1 per phone? Come on.
A3 2017 replacement glass back costs £3 to buy on eBay, S4 plastic back costs £2 to buy, probably much cheaper to make.
The tab s3 bad s4 had glass backs, now those were terrible ideas with the size of them.

Alex, 20 Feb 2021So many people mention 5-6h SOT that makes me wonder how in... moreProbably they do the tests without any sim card on it. So automatically all phones battery last longer than normal. But even with that, the results of S21 are quite good. Better than average and very good for a compact flagship.

Anonymous, 23 Feb 2021~£800 phone, plastic back 😂Which is actually much better than a Glass back, which can break. A plastic back is much more durable. But either way I never see the back of any phone I own. Since I always use a case. So I would rather have the back that lowers the cost of the phone than a back that raises the cost of the phone.
When I got my first Galaxy S phone that had a glass back I thought it was weird anyway. Since it made no sense at all to have a glass back. Since a glass back serves no purpose.

For me I am using 28Gbps(3500Mbps) NVMe cards in a couple of my PCs along with 10GigE network connections at home. And with the 10Gbps USB connections they can easily max out the read/write speeds to/from the S21.
